Hi,

I'm looking for something analogous to Perl's Date::Calc module. I'm
hoping to write a scheduling system, but can't seem to find a package
or library in CL that handles Gregorian dates.

If anyone knows of where I can get one, (free or commercial), I'd be
grateful.

thanks,
dave

CLLIB from http://www.goems.com/~sds under software, ANSI CL add-ons
has a large number of date handling routines.

I think emacs-lisp knows well about a lot of calendar (Gregorian,
Chinese, Maya, French revolutionary, ...),
Take a look at emacs + emacs-lisp files, http://www.gnu.org, the lisp
source files are available.

If if it is difficult for you to get it, I can send these to you, just
ask for it.

date.lsp has many date-hangling functions (GPL)
it is also a part of clocc (http://clocc.sourceforge.net).

Micros**t is not the answer. Micros**t is a question, and the answer is Linux,
(http://www.linux.org) the choice of the GNU (http://www.gnu.org) generation.
Two wrongs don't make a right, but three rights make a left.

See the book "Calendrical Calculations" by Dershowitz and Reingold,
Cambridge University Press.
It includes Common Lisp functions for interconverting almost all calendar
systems. There is (or was)
a web site.
